Punt Road Merlot 2013
"Black truffle with ripe plum, hints of cedar, black olives, pencil shavings, and fine, dusty tannins."
-Tim Shand, Head Winemaker
Vintage
Sourced from the two oldest blocks on the Napoleone vineyard, this merlot is low-cropping and produced in limited quantities.
2013 was an excellent growing season with wines achieving fantastic flavour development, ripeness without excessive alcohols, and beautifully balanced acidity.
Winemaking
Hand-picked from the Napoleone Vineyard. 100% destemmed then crushed and cold soaked for several days to assist with colour and flavour extraction. After gentle pressing the wine was matured in a combination of 25% new and seasoned French hogsheads for 9 months.
